CPR ...and some stats

Also, I was just checking through our season stats, and some things stuck out to me.

-We have outscored our opponents 109-107. Pretty good for a 1-3 (or 2-2, really!) team.
-We have 54 yards of offense more than our opponents!
-We only have 7 sacks, but have allowed 16. Those are huge issues for this team.
-Sam Richardson is on pace to throw for 3,057 yards and 27 TDs.
-Bundrage is on pace to get 972 rec. yards and 12 TDs.
-Cole Netten is a perfect 11-11 of XPs, and 6-8 on FGs with his only two misses being from beyond 45 yds.
-Jeremiah George is now averaging exactly 10 tackles per game, and J. Washington at 9.5. They are both on pace to top the 100 mark. Luke Knott is at 7.3 tackles per game and had a forced fumble. Brackens, Sam E. Richardson and Broomy are all averaging over 6 tackles per game.

Re: CPR ...and some stats

I do not mean to be a pessimist but we have only played four games against some mediocre opponents, so I would not make any season projections or do a whole lot of chest bumping based on that small sample.

There is no denying that we have gotten better though.

There are systems for a reason in this world...economic stability, interest rates, growth. It's not all a conspiracy to keep you in little boxes, alright? It's only the miracle of consumer capitalism that means you're not lying in your own s**t, dying at 43 with rotten teeth.

Compared to the first 4 games of every other season for a long team, we have improved in nearly every category besides wins.

Is that what he's on pace to get? B/c if so, he will probably annihilate that number considering he really couldn't even run in half the games we've played so far. As long as he remains at least as healthy as he was for the Texas game.

He did look like he was hurting pretty bad there at the end of the game. Guess we will see next week. I'm pretty excited that Bundrage could possibly break 1,000 if he keeps playing well.

Re: CPR ...and some stats

This is going to sound like a smart ***, sarcastic question, but it's sincere... Is it possible that Mess is no longer calling plays? Is Sturdy still on the sideline (and not holding a play card)? I know I saw him down there against Iowa, but did anyone see him against Tulsa and Texas?

Clearly this offense has made dramatic improvements. No doubt some of it is due to health, but there is also evidence of some philosophical shifts/adjustments, which is why I ask the question. And I realize that it is entirely possible that Mess may have made some adjustments himself or been strongly encouraged to do so.
